Tortellini in ham and cream sauce

Prepare the tortellini according to the package instructions. Dice the ham and chop the parsley. Drain the tortellini briefly and then place them in a deep pan. Immediately add the Italian panna and mix well with the tortellini. Reduce the heat to low; the cream should only be hot, not boiling. Add the ham and parsley, heat briefly, and season with salt and pepper. Serve immediately; the cream should still be nice and creamy. Only prepare this dish with Italian panna, as it won’t work with liquid German cream.
